James Rodriguez insists that all his well between him and Zidane while adding that they maintain a good relationship still.
The 28-year-old has made just eight La Liga appearances this campaign, including just one since October 19.
Lack of adequate game-time has seen rumors surface Rodriguez and his manager have seen their relationship gone sour over the past few months.
While he actually wants to know why he doesn’t play much, the Colombian has come on to dismiss rumors of a bad relationship between himself and the Frenchman.
“[Why don’t I play] is a good question and I would also like to know,” he said. “When you win important titles with players you have trusted and when you have the core, it is difficult to change.” Rodriguez said.
“Also, it is complicated when your coach does not give you minutes permanently, it becomes difficult. It is complex to show your abilities in a few minutes, you cannot do everything you know.
“Those who are in the world of football know what I am talking about. A lot of things are said about me and almost all are lies.”
Rodriguez also commented on his relationship with Zidane.
“There was never any problem. “Every coach has their tastes. We have a normal working relationship.”
“I don’t have a central role, but I am training and working for when it is my turn, so I can do well. I am also thinking about the future, that wherever I am I have to perform at my highest level.
“I don’t know what will happen in the future, but if they give me a choice then I would choose a club where I could show my abilities and my potential.”
